This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Expertos en Liderazgo han reconocido una paradoja que caracteriza este concepto: buscamos un liderazgo efectivo justo cuando los líderes son incapaces de manejar apropiadamente los acontecimientos que afectan nuestras vidas. Confrontar este círculo vicioso implica analizar la noción de liderazgo en función de la relación entre líderes y seguidores. Este tema fue discutido abiertamente durante el 2008, año caracterizado por varias crisis en los niveles global (e.g. la crisis financiera), regional (la crisis andina) y nacional (la crisis electoral en Zimbabwe). Estudios recientes se enfocan en las cualidades de los 'buenos' líderes. En contraste, los ensayos de este volumen, resultado de los paneles centrales de la conferencia RISC 2008, traen a los seguidores de vuelta a la escena del análisis social. Cada autor discute la necesidad de crear nuevas formas de gobierno 'seguidor-centrista', a través de estudios relacionados con diferentes eventos del 2008: la política electoral y la calidad de la democracia, el impacto de la crisis financiera global en Bélgica, la guerra civil en Colombia, la crisis andina, la 'guerra' de México contra la violencia y la política exterior de Sudáfrica.Scholars of leadership have appropriately recognized a paradox which characterizes this concept: we seek effective leadership in moments when leaders are incapable of properly managing events which affect our lives. Confronting this vicious circle implies analyzing leadership as the function of the relationship between leaders and followers. This theme was openly discussed in 2008, a year characterized by various crises at the global (e.g. the financial crisis), regional (e.g. the Andean Crisis), and national (e.g. the electoral crisis in Zimbabwe) levels. Recent studies on leadership have focused on the so-called qualities of 'good' leaders. In contrast, the essays in this edited volume, which derive from the keynote panels of the RISC Consortium's 2008 conference, 'bring followers back in'. All the chapters discuss the need to create new forms of follower-based governance through studies of phenomena related to 2008, including electoral politics and the quality of democracy, the impact of the global financial crisis in Belgium, civil war in Colombia, the 2008 Andean Crisis, Mexico's 'War on Violence' and South Africa's foreign policy. 166 pp. Spanisch, Englisch.…
